I recently upgraded my system to FreeBSD 4.2 and then downloaded and
installed netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.1.3_1. The install seemed to go OK,
but printing has not come online.
Here was my first attempt:
% lpr /etc/group
lpr: cannot create /var/spool/output/lp/.seq
"mkdir /var/spool/output/lp" seems to have solve this problem, but
then I got:
%lpr /etc/group
lpr: connect: No such file or directory
jobs queued, but cannot start daemon.
Any suggestions? Like, is there some magic I need to invoke?
-r
Here are my /etc/printcap entries, FWIW:
# HP LJ 4M, via netatalk
